Saw Aberdeen advertised with photos. It looked so impressive. We decided to take a ride to the restaurant. It did not disappoint. Beautiful restaurant with Northwoods feel. Huge, two story window overlooking the lake. Dana, the bartender greeted us. Very friendly and enjoyed our conversation...with her. She made a great old fashioned! Izzy, our waitress was also very attentive and pleasant. My husband had the Bourbon Shrimp and I had the Spanish Pork. Both were OUTSTANDING! Our compliments to the chef! Highly recommended by us. We will be back!!!!!More

I can't say enough positive comments on our experience at Aberdeen! First of all, the location is nestled away in the woods overlooking the lake, inside the atmosphere is warm and inviting and cozy, great décor, then the owner , Larry, goes above and beyond...to make you feel right at home! It was our 30th anniversary and I requested a table by the window and he gave us 2 options! So friendly and kind! The bartender, Dana, is amazing and makes a delicious bourbon old fashioned! She gave us options on how to order the perfect one! Fabulous! Our server, Belle, was wonderful! She was patient and personable and attentive , just the right amount. THEN... the food was out of this world and the price for what you get, is amazing! We will be going there every time we go to Northwoods! A 30th anniversary we will never forget! Thank YOU all!More

We stumbled onto this gem while searching for a spot that wasn’t overrun with motorcycles during the rally weekend. Our dining experience was perfect, the food expertly prepared and the entire staff, especially our waitress was conscientious. The building itself is a beautiful lodge with...a huge stone fireplace dominating one entire wall. We were so happy to have found Aberdeen’s!More

Always spot on service by the owner, bartender, and wait staff. Food is delicious (especially the walleye special). Gorgeous setting, and comfortable atmosphere. Everyone feels like family here!

This is a beautiful pine-panelled lodge set back in the woods with huge windows overlooking a small bay on the south end of Lake Manitowish. You can boat or drive in. We have been there twice now, and can't give higher marks. Both times, the...owner has been the host and "wine steward," and he'll swing by your table about 3 times during the meal to check in. And since reasonably well-dressed (business casual) middle-aged folk are somewhat of a rarity in Northern Wisconsin, he correctly guessed it was our anniversary celebration. The service is fast, attentive, and friendly, and the food is excellent (we've had both fish and steak items). It's usually full, so best to try to get a reservation, but they do keep a good number of tables set aside for walk-ins, though expect to wait an hour in the bar at peak times. As for us, we will be back.More

Consistently wonderful food, beautiful north woods style and terrific service. Blake seated us and is working hard to provide the same welcoming service they’re known for.

Not wanting to do any flying yet because of COVID, we decided to return to Manitowish Waters for a fall vacation. The fall view from the Aberdeen's windows was so beautiful. My husband and I ordered a take out dinner of Blackened Salmon Teriyaki and...it was outstanding. The next day we had our son and grandchildren with us and since we had enjoyed our salmon takeout the night before, we ordered it again. All of us enjoyed our dinners. The atmosphere of the Aberdeen is so "Up North" and rustic. We look forward to returning next fall.More

Classic upscale north woods spot Very nice place. Clean well run beautiful view lake. Every dish was tasty. A little more expensive but worth it.More

Excellent food and service in a charming Northwoods setting. We try to eat here at least once a month throughout the year. Reservations are important; although there’s a lovely bar to sit and wait for a table. They can accommodate large groups.

stayed at a cabin nearby, and carried-out fish on a Friday night. Our dinner was good - decent portions sizes for the $ we paid. Dining room was busy, with long wait times - always a good sign. The view of the Trout River is...outstanding.More

A beautiful setting for dinner in the northwoods. Larry greeted and seated us and Emily was our server. Both were incredibly professional and hospitable. We felt "at home" as soon as we walked in. We started with a couple of generously poured old fashions. The...Hungarian mushroom soup was excellent. My wife's ribs were some of the best she ever had. I had the blackened walleye over rice smothered in a well-spiced Cajun crawfish cream sauce. It was honestly one of the best things I've eaten in years. Topped it off with a shared creme brulee. All of that, plus a couple of glasses of red wine for $90. We will be back.More

We come only by boat - there is not dock but it's worth the effort. This year we only had the cheese curds, walleye fries, drinks and multiple other great appetizers made into a meal. Excellent bar tender and service staff.More
